I don't understand why trainers are so sensitive about this subject. They are always crying poverty, yet they have nice houses and drive nice cars.

If a trainer(in Southern California) has 40 horses and he is taking a salary of $130,000 a year, I'm not going to feel sorry for him if he's losing $10,000 a year on day money after all the salaries are paid including his own. That means he's still making $120,000 a year and that does not include what he makes on purses.
